The Memory Journalists had the pleasure of capturing all the loveliness of Agnes's 90th Hawaiian Themed Birthday party earlier this year. It was such a joyous event and the continued smile on Agnes's face was infectious. I can't believe that this blog post escaped through the cracks and was never posted live. We apologize for the tardy post.

It's time to make memories, and enjoy the sweetness of life. Family portraits are one of the most precious keepsakes you can have. From the beginning of glancing at your newborn, to their first steps as a toddler, or capturing those candid shots as a family. Whichever shoot you're going for, we'll be with you every step of the way. Turn your family time into treasured moments, and they'll never be forgotten.

We arrived at my favorite park and this was one of my first shots of the afternoon. :-) I just LOVE it. Dominic just wanted to play and we had other plans. We wanted to get a family photograph, since David's mom, Mildred (aka grandma), and David's brother and his wife, Bruce and Vandana, and their two girls, Anjali and Abigail, were all in attendance as well.

I just love where Darleen finds Dom's clothes. And Vandana had the girls in perfect matching dresses.

This is the whole clan.

Anjali saw how daddy hugged her in this photo and she mimicked it with her sister.

Dominic loves Woody and this doll is awesome!

We finally started to play and the smiles all returned.

Abigail enjoyed the swings too!

Another photo I just LOVE LOVE LOVE. Dominic has great facial expressions and dad likes to encourage them. :-)

This was just a perfect moment when I had Abi's full attention.

One photo of Grandma and the grandkids. It was no feat to get everyone looking in the same direction all at once!

David had just sneezed and provided great entertainment for Anjali.

After I asked if this pose was mimicking Dr. Evil (from Austin Powers), and the answer was yes, this became my favorite photo of the entire afternoon. :-)
